On July 19, 2016 CVG announced the closure of its wire harness facility in Monona, IA effective in late March, 2017. This move displaces about 125 of its 146 total employees, and the work done by these individuals is moving to Mexico.

If you are interested or ready to start or expand your light manufacturing business, this team is already trained in manufacturing and factory assembly work and they are ready to help you get your business off to a great start. Don't wait too long though or the workforce team will disburse as they find other suitable employment.

Monona, IA has a great quality of life, stellar school system, and hard-working and loyal workforce. Monona Chamber & Economic Development, Inc. invites you to come for a visit, tour CVG's complex, and stay to get to know the people.

Ideally, CVG would like to sell the building and potentially lease back a portion of its office space to house its administrative staff remaining in the area, which supports its materials purchasing, sales, and other non-production activities.
